INTRODUCTION

Basically language is one of the most important aspects of human relationships. Language is

the main communication tool for human life. Language has a central role for the development of

intellectual, social, and emotional to support the learner to reach the success in another lessons. According to Sapir (1921: 8) “Language is a purely human and non-instinctive method of communicating ideas, and emotions, and desires by means of voluntarily produced symbols.” From the definition above, language is an instrument of human for communication to express their opinion

related to their social culture. Language learning is a practicing form because without learn the human

cannot uses the language well. The use of language in society cannot be separated from the influence

of culture of each area. It is become the diverse languages such as Indonesian, Malay, Thai, Korean,

Arabic, English and many other languages. But among all languages, English is being an international

language to facilitate communication between countries. Language can also become an education in

the learning process. In Indonesia, English becomes a part of learning process. It is purpose to make

the Indonesian students will be competitive with the foreigner. And it happens in many countries too.

English is also become a part of learning process.

English as a foreign language (EFL) becomes an important language. The reason why English

becomes an important language is because many countries in the world use English language as their

formal language. Although in Indonesia, English is not formal language. Because the citizen still have

a culture to use Indonesian as their formal language. But in globalization era, English is very

important. Because human thinks that using English as their formal language is like lifestyle. This

phenomenon makes some people think to use English language as their formal language to follow the

lifestyle in globalization era. Because of that English language need to applied by children early.

English is also being one of the subjects of instruction in schools from kindergarten until college level.

It becomes a way to prepare the students in the face of growing globalization. It is also to make the

student has ability to compete with the foreigner and other countries. English has four language skills

in English teaching cover: speaking, listening, writing, and reading. The four language skills are the

ability in learning English that is used to understand about English. In language teaching, the teacher

should use technique to teach the students. The various classroom techniques can make the students

more active and not bored during teaching-learning process.

One of Junior High School in Indonesia that applying English as one of subject of instruction is

SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura. SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura is a school-based Islam.

Nevertheless, SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura also contains English subject and English

extracurricular which is English Club for the students of seventh and eighth grade. There are intended to improve student’s knowledge in English language. The English teaching staffs also have experience as a teacher. The teacher makes the best interaction and gives some facilitation in teaching-learning

process of English. Thus the students hope able to communicate with English correctly. The students

English teaching-learning process in SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura is very interesting. The teacher uses variety of ways to make the student’s are interested to learn about English skills in teaching-learning process. It aims to attract the attention of students in learning English.

According to Anthony (1963: 94) in Fauziati (2014: 11), identifies three levels of

conceptualization and organization, which are termed as approach, method, and technique. The first

level of trio terms is approach. According to Anthony cited by Fauziati (2009: 14) defines approach as “A set of correlative assumptions dealing with the nature of language and the nature of language teaching and learning. An approach is an “axiomatic.’ Then Anthony (1963: 95) in Fauziati (2009: 15) views method as “An overall plan for the orderly presentation of language material, no part of which contradicts, and all of which is based upon the selected approach. An approach is axiomatic whereas

method is procedural”. Method is treated at the level design in which the roles of the teacher, learners,

and instructional materials are specified. Thus, method is theoretically related to an approach and is

organizationally determined by a design. Then Fauziati (2014: 17) views technique as the third level. It is “implementation which actually takes place in a classroom. It is a particular trick, strategy, or contrivance which used to accomplish an immediate objective. According to Anthony (1936: 96) in

Fauziati (2014: 17) states that technique must be consistent with a method, and therefore in harmony

with an approach as well. Fauziati (2009: 17) explains technique is classroom practice done by the

teacher when presenting a language program.

Based on the definition about approach, method and technique above, we can conclude the difference among them. Approach is the basic acceptance of teacher’s personal philosophy about teaching-learning. Method is action of teacher such as teacher’s role and learner’s role and

instructional materials by selected approach. While technique is the real application happened when

teaching-learning process in the classroom.

From the previous research, the researchers are concerned to identify the teaching

techniques in teaching speaking, teaching vocabulary, teaching English, and teaching reading. All of

the researchers found that language is also important aspects for human relationship. Language is an

instrument of human for communication to express their opinion related to their social culture.

Language learning is needed for human to increase their knowledge about language. This

phenomenon makes researchers to research how the language learning, especially in Junior high

school.

In this research, the researcher is interested to describe the classroom techniques used by the

teacher in the teaching of English: a naturalistic study at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura in

2015/2016 academic year. To prove the originality of this research, the researcher takes some

previous studies related to techniques of teaching English. There are Dara (2013), Sari (2013),

This research focuses on classroom techniques used by the teacher in the teaching of

English: a naturalistic study at SMP Muhammadiyah 1 Kartasura in 2015/2016 academic year

includes the components of techniques such as, the kinds of classroom techniques, the purposes of using each technique, teacher’s role, student’s role in each classroom techniques, and instructional material.

The researcher applies several theories related with previous study in order to support the

data of research. There are several theories to support her research namely Notion of Approach,

Method, and Technique, Notion of Classroom Techniques of English teaching, and instructional

material.

Anthony in Allen (1965: 94; Fauziati, 2014: 11) views approach as “A set of correlative

assumptions dealing with the nature of languageand the nature of language teching and learning. An approach is an axiomatic.” An approach describes the nature of the subject matter to be taught. Theories at the level of approach relate directly to the level of design.

According to Richards and Rodgers (2001), a method is theoretically related to an

approach, organized by the design, and practically realized in procedure.

Anthony (1963: 96) in Fauziati (2014: 13) defines technique is implementation which

actually takes place in a classroom. It is a particular trick, strategy, or contrivance which used to

accomplish an immediate objective.

Classroom technique used by the teacher depends on the approach and method. Every

language skills of teaching English used the different types of teaching or classroom techniques.

So, to aim the goal of teaching learning process, the techniques used by the teacher must be

appropriate with the language skills and the learners’ characteristics. There are some examples of

classroom techniques for teaching listening, those are: Oral Repetition, Identifying Key Word,

Paraphrasing, Summarizing, and Answering Question. There are some examples of classroom

techniques for teaching speaking, those are: Role Playing, Games, Problem Solving, Discussion,

and Song. There some techniques for teaching reading, as follow: Recognizing Word Meaning,

Recognizing Phrases, Recognizing Sentences Structure, Comprehension, Previewing, Skimming

and Scanning, and Prediction. There are some examples of classroom techniques for teaching

writing, those are: The Product Approach, The Process Approach, and Genre-Based Approach.

Little wood in Anita (2005:20) states that teachers play role as a facilitator of learning and

as manager in the classroom. They may perform as a language instructor, as a consultant or advisor and as communicator. There are several teacher’s roles, such as: (1) Teacher’ role as a facilitator, (2) As a classroom manager, (3) As an instructor, (4) As a consultant, (5) As a

communicator.

According to Johnson and Paulson (1979) in Richard (2001) learner roles in an

individualized approach to language learning in the following terms: (1) Learners plan their own

learning program and this ultimately assumes responsibility for what do in the classroom. (2)

(10)

6

interacting with others. (4) Learners tutor other learners. (5) Learners learn from the teacher, from

other students, and from other sources.

Cunningsworth (1995: 7) states that course books are best seen as a resource in achieving

aims and objectives that have already been set in terms of learner needs. Course books or materials

have multiple roles in English Language Teaching and can serve as: (1) A resource for presentation

material (spoken and written), (2) A source of activities for learner practice and communicative

interaction. (3) A reference source for learners on grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, so on. (4)

A source of stimulation and ideas for classroom language activities. (5) A syllabus (where they

reflect learning objectives which have already been determined), (6) A resource for self-directed

learning or self-access work. (7) A support for less experienced teachers who have yet to gain in

confidence.

teacher has many functions in the classroom. In her observation, the researcher found that the

teachers have their own roles in each of teaching technique. There are teachers’ roles that the

researcher found in her observation. (1) Teacher as model, (2) Teacher as instructor, (3) Teacher as

teaching knowledge, (4) Teacher as a facilitator, (5) Teacher as evaluator, (6) Teacher as controller.
